Product Managers

Synthetic Training Systems

The Product Manager for Synthetic Training Systems (PdM STS) provides training systems that immerse Marine elements from individual Marine to the Marine Expeditionary Force (MEF) in synthetic training environments. The training systems support multi-echelon training in command and control, tactical decision-making, operational planning and evaluation, combined arms, and fire support. STS enables the training of Marines in familiarity and functionality of their weapons platforms, individual and unit tactics, basic and advanced combat convoy operations, combat vehicle gunnery proficiency, motor transport tactical vehicle operator driving skills, and marksmanship training to enhance live fire performance, combat readiness, and the overall lethality of the force.

Range Training Systems

The Product Manager for Range Training Systems (PdM RTS) provides U.S. Marine Corps bases and stations with live force-on-force, force-on-target tactical engagement training and dynamic capabilities for real time and post mission battle tracking and after-action review. RTS directly impacts tactical training and the commander’s ability to meet mandated pre-deployment training requirements, which ultimately affects force readiness. In addition to concentrating on live, interactive simulations and ranges, RTS also provides support to more than 1,400 range training areas (165 are instrumented) across the Marine Corps enterprise - working hand in hand with Naval Facilities Engineering Command on military construction projects on range modernization efforts that require site preparation and simulator buildings that will house our simulators.

Training Systems Sustainment and Support Services

The Product Manager for Training Systems Sustainment and Support Services (PdM TS4) provides the Program Manager for Training Systems life cycle sustainment and support services across the training enterprise. The specific efforts that are managed within TS4 include Electronics Communications Services (ECS) Multiple Award Task Order Contract (MATOC), Equipment Related Services- Systems (ERS-S) MATOC, Ground Training Systems Support, and Marine Air-Ground Task Force (MAGTF) Training Systems Support (MTSS).
